Pluspunten

Fun in-office culture. Makes going into the office everyday bearable Decent place if you are just starting your sales career. But only if you have never had any Tech Sales job in your life.

Minpunten

Mis-aligned leadership Favoritism Cliques Misleading during interview process on how well reps are doing as far as attaining OTE. Compensation is way below the industry average, both in salary and commission No care for their employees, effort and skill mean nothing if you're not a favorite of the leadership Unrealistic quotas with awful territory segmentation. Quotas only based on seniority level without taking the territory the reps are covering or historical data in mind I would never recommend that an experience AE work at this company. The leadership is awful, misguided, and inexperienced. They don't care about the actual skillset or experience their reps have. So many partners and companies have a bad taste in their mouth from bad experiences with this company, which makes it nearly impossible to foster relationships or expand your book of business in a timely manner. Recruiters and leadership will also lie to you about how well the office is doing and the ability to attain OTE. Only 32% of reps in this office are attainting over 50%, and I can't imagine how much worse other offices are doing . Churn is absolutely insane because those who are attaining over 50% have very lucrative zip codes with deals fed to them from leadership and/or pre-existing relationships. Your actual skillset does not make a difference at this company as far as performance or recognition. Stay away if you care about your career and making money long-term. I also need to add that this is the only company I have ever worked for where sexism is abundantly clear. From men clearly objectifying women, to women not being treated fairly when it comes to evaluations and lead distribution. I witnessed women being affected by this firsthand, and let me tell you HR is NOT on your side. Women beware.

Pluspunten

-Exceptional autonomy and ownership from day one — you'll have real budget, real responsibility, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact without hand-holding -The work is genuinely interesting, especially for events and marketing roles with large-scale programs and cross-functional exposure -Verkada as a company is investing in culture and it shows — there's visible effort at the organizational level -Strong learning environment for self-starters who thrive in fast-paced, figure-it-out settings

Minpunten

-Hustle culture is not just encouraged — it's expected, and it flows directly from senior leadership. Work-life balance is essentially non-existent on the marketing team -The CMO is deeply in the weeds, which creates a trickle-down effect across the team. If you're hoping for strategic leadership and visibility from above, you may be disappointed -Manager availability is inconsistent at best. If you need regular 1:1 time and mentorship to feel supported, this environment will be discouraging -In-office culture is celebrated in San Mateo, but remote/field employees are largely an afterthought on the marketing team. The culture doesn't extend meaningfully outside HQ -Pay increases and promotions are rare. Don't expect to be rewarded for strong performance on any predictable timeline -No care or acknowledgement for excessive hours working, traveling, being away from home
